Chief Sainz and Colonel Spoo were surprised that Richard had been able to complete his mission and return home smoothly, because they had been hearing bad news, but Richard stood in front of them in good spirits, which made them overjoyed and pleasantly surprised.

The director patted Richard on the back, embarrassed for a while, and full of emotion.

Richard held the secretly copied military plan in both hands, which clearly described the upcoming military attack of the Greek army on Atlantis.

Richard pointed to the military map that accompanied the military plan and said: "I have changed all the data and annotations on this map, especially the geographical location of our country, which deviates from the actual distance by nearly 1,000 nautical miles, and they are still in the dark." ”

The director looked at the map and said, "I look at the data and labels on it, and none of them are correct. How exactly do you do that? ”

Richard smiled proudly, "It's nothing, I disguised myself as a doctor, an expert in geography, and deceived them into trusting me, and they listened to all my advice." ”

Spo excitedly shook Richard's hand and said, "Thank you, Richard, now you have made a great contribution to the country and the people!" ”

Next, there was a celebration banquet, a commendation meeting, and a bonus, and for several days in a row, Richard spent it surrounded by flowers and applause.

But his heart is no longer in the MIA, and he is ready to take his skull and return to country M in 2159.

That afternoon, he called the astronauts on the spacecraft that were orbiting the Earth, but he was disappointed to receive the information that the astronauts had told him that the spacecraft had malfunctioned and could not land.

Oh, what can I do? He couldn't go back.

He immediately realized that this was not a good sign, there were many dreams at night, and if he stayed in this ghost place for a long day, accidents could happen, and his disguised identity could be exposed at any time, and his life might even be in danger.

He thought of taking Lisa, if she could help him.

Just as Lisa was about to go to see how his ship was repaired, he took her in a sports car to a small town on the outskirts.

The sports car arrived in the town, entered the village, and stopped in front of a barn. Richard and Narissa got out of the car and walked into the barn.

In the barn was a large spaceship, the size of a basketball court, with a silvery-white metallic sheen. There were two male astronauts who were busy fixing something.

"Biao Tefu, it's been so long, has the spaceship been repaired?"

"It's almost there, chief, you're back?" Biao Tefu wiped his hands with cotton yarn and said with a smile.

Another astronaut, Fury, walked over and said, "If nothing else, we'll be on our way tomorrow." ”

"Very good, hurry up and fix it, and strive to succeed tomorrow." Lisa led Richard into a nearby room.

"I said beauty, I want to ask you to do me a favor." Richard said worriedly.

"Help? If you have something, just say it. ”

"That's right, my spaceship suddenly malfunctioned and couldn't land, I can't go back to the real world, this time it's a big trouble, the director gave me 90 days, so I must rush back on time, otherwise the earth will be in great danger. Now that I've been using it for more than 60 days, and I only have less than a month left, can you please ...... Belch...... Belch...... Give me a ride? ”

"What, giving you a ride?" Lisa was a little surprised, but after thinking about it, she was relieved. "It's not impossible to send you, but if you want to go to country M in 12,000 years, the spacecraft will have to pass through the 'wormhole', and it will fly for three days and three nights, which is very fuel-intensive, I don't know if the fuel on the ship is enough? Because just to go to Sirius, it will take more than a month to walk on the road. ”

Richard nodded and admitted, "Yes, it takes more fuel to cross the 'wormhole' twice. However, if you don't send me, I won't be able to complete the mission, I ...... I don't want to die in this place. ”

"Well, I'll talk to my two assistants and see if we can figure it out."

"Okay, that's for the best."

Lisa walked out.

An hour passed...... Two hours had passed, and Lisa had not returned, and Richard heard a heated argument coming from next door, and he estimated that they had not gone well.

After a while, Na Lisa came back refreshed, but Richard felt a little uncomfortable, "I'm sorry, I'm ...... for you."

Lisa interrupted him with a wave of her hand, "It's okay, I persuaded them, and they finally agreed to give you a ride, and we'll set sail in an hour." ”

Richard said apologetically: "If the cost of the road is too high, I can ask my country to compensate you for your losses." ”

Na Lisa smiled lightly, "No need." Help people to the end and send the Buddha to the west. ”

An hour later, S&F lifted the lid of the barn, and Fury started the ship's engines, which let out a loud roar and began to erupt from the bottom......

Lisa led Richard into the ship, and Richard clutched the skull in his hand.

Na pointed to a seat and said: "You sit there, please bring an oxygen mask, fasten the seat belt, after a while, the spacecraft will turn on the afterburner, the speed will be very fast, you will have a sense of weightlessness, some dizziness and nausea, but it will be fine for a while." ”

Richard was a little nervous, but he did as Lisa had said, putting on an oxygen mask and fastening his seat belt.

The two engineers walked in and looked at him, their eyes were complicated and contained some strange information, but they didn't say anything, and sat down in the driver's seat.

Richard couldn't help but be a little worried.

"Ignition!"

The control panel was all lit up at once, and the rows of neatly arranged indicator lights emitted a faint green light.

Na Lisa gave the order: "Take off!" ”

A huge roar sounded, the spacecraft quickly took off, and in the blink of an eye it had risen into the air, and Richard looked down through the string window, the earth became smaller and smaller, and the entire Atlantic Ocean became a bowl of gruel-like paste.

He felt a wave of dizziness, quickly withdrew his gaze, and sat up straight.

After about ten minutes, Na Lisa gave another order: "Turn on the afterburner." ”

The ship jerked forward, and Richard felt a strong thrust push against his seat, unable to move, and he was a little out of breath.

He quickly adjusted his breathing and inhaled heavily, but his head became more and more dizzy, and his vision was blurred......

Na Lisa sat in the front row, glanced back at him, smiled comfortingly, and said, "It's okay, I'll get used to it after a while." ”

But Richard felt his heart pounding, and he was so nervous that he was nauseous, and he was about to vomit......

"Captain, the ship reaches 1/2 the speed of light." S&P reported.

"Got it, keep heading and keep accelerating." Narissa ordered.

"Yes!" The ship began to pick up speed again, and Richard felt a wave of more pressure, but gradually, the pressure was lessening, his head was less dizzy, and his heartbeat was back to normal.

About 10 minutes later, S&F reported again: "Captain, the ship reaches the speed of light. ”

"Good."

Richard turned his head and began to observe the ship's internals.

The cockpit is about 40 square meters in size and consists mainly of the front window, the steering wheel and a few seats. At the top of the cabin is a skylight, through which you can see the dark sky. The small stars that are usually seen on the earth appear large and bright at the moment, as if they are close at hand.

What are the facilities and layout of the rear cabin, Richard is very curious.

As soon as he opened his mouth to ask, Lisa understood what he meant, so she unfastened his seat belt, took off her oxygen mask, and led him to the rear cabin.

They walked back down the corridor, and along the road were several rooms, large and small, all of which contained some communication equipment and technological facilities. At the back are three bedrooms with several comfortable beds inside.

They entered a restaurant with a very modern bar with a variety of fine wines in the cupboards.

Na Lisa opened a bottle of red wine, poured two glasses, and handed one to Richard, "Come, try our Sirius wine, I promise to praise you." ”

Richard took a sip of red wine, and suddenly felt wonderful, as sweet as elixir.

"It's so delicious, it's unforgettable."

The two chatted about other foods, and finally Richard asked, "This ship has reached the speed of light, why can't I feel it?" ”

"I told you that you don't understand, the speed of light is the speed of the universe, and you can't feel it because this cabin is a decompression chamber, and the pressure is the same as on Earth, so you can't feel it. Without the speed of light, we would not be able to return to your present world. ”

"You just said that it will take three days and three nights to go back to 12,000 years later, can you hurry up, say go back in one day?"

"No, that would need to be more than three times the speed of light, and with our current technology, we can't do it."

The two were chatting hotly, when suddenly, the door opened, and Biao Tefu walked in, holding a small pistol in his hand, the muzzle of which was pointed at the two of them.

"Don't move, hands up!"

Richard and Narissa were stunned and stood up involuntarily.

Spurt Fu warned sharply: "I said, don't move! Do you hear me!! Put your hands behind your head, yes, yes, yes, that's all. ”

Fury came up with a pistol and searched for Lisa's pistol, and then took Richard's pistol away.

"Click, click" twice, and Biao Tefu handcuffed the two to the edge of the seat.

Richard reluctantly broke the handcuffs, but he couldn't break free at all.

Na Lisa stared at the two fiercely and warned sternly: "Biao Tefu and Fury, do you know what you are doing? ”

"I don't know, I just know that I can't disobey the orders of my superiors, and I can't give the crystal skull that I have worked so hard to find as a favor to others."

Fury teased: "Others? I'm afraid it's not 'someone else', but a lover. ”

The two let out a strange laugh.

Lisa warned sternly, "I tell you two bastards, bastards, let me go!" Otherwise, back to Sirius, I only need one word to make you eat in prison for the rest of your life! ”
